Here's the result of my run today:
========================
a) redhat-config-network. It shows both eth0 (ethernet) and ppp0 (xDSL)
as being inactive.
========================
b) ifconfig shows etho0 up (how do I reconcile with the above?) and with
no IP address.
========================
c) I bring to bring ppp0 by what I thought was a straightforward way:
# ifconfig ppp0 up
ppp0: unknown interface: No such device
========================
d) While adsl-start has not yet timed out:
# ifconfig -a
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:03:47:CA:FA:E2

========================
e) Then adsl-start times out:
# adsl-start
/sbin/adsl-start: line 221: 18532 Terminated $CONNECT "$@" >/dev/null 2>&1
========================
f) I then look at my routing table:
# netstat -nr
Kernel IP routing table
